Ball


CHICAGO, July 2-Baiiiff Henry L. Ryce,
of Judge Bakers court, is authority for the
statement that on last Tuesday evening,
about O'Clock, while in court he was given
a bomb by Judge Baker The latter had
been rolling it on the floor under his desk
with his feet, during the trial of the case, not
knowing what it was until court adjourned,
when he picked it up and looked at it Mr..
Ryce informed reporter that he examined
the bomb at his house on Wednesday night,
and found fuse attached to it, which had
been ignited, but had gone out after burning
within half an inch of the mouth
of the bomb. He asserts that he
took a quantity of dynamite out Of
the bomb, which he has put in hole
in the ground for safety. The shell he has
in his possession Mr. Rvce added that Judge
Baker desired that the matter should be given
no publicity until the facts were looked into
by the police The bomb is supposed to be
relic of the Anarchist trial. The room in
which it was found was the one in which the
Anarchists We're tried Some of the court of
ticials say it has been kicking around the
floor for months. Some, however, make a
sensation of it, and declare it must have been

Couple of Noted Thieves Get Away
from Chicago Police.

CHICAGO, July Patrick Hanley and
Kid Mum, alias Nat Kennedy, two of the
meu-concerned in the famous Cleveland fur
robbery last February, are believed to have
been in the hands of the police of this city
about O'Clock Friday morning. A special
freight tram came in at that time over the
Lake Shore & Michigan Southern railroad,
and was side-tracked at the Fortieth street
crossing. Finding one of the cars unlocked,
the police on duty there opened it and diScov-
cred two men hiding among the household
goods with which the car was freighted The
stowaways were dragged out, carefully eN-
amined, and then started off toward the po-
lice station. While crossing the tracks and
clambering over a standing train the two
prisoners suddenly broke loose from the Off
GERS and made their escape in the darkness
The officers who arrested the men are quite
confident that they were the pair of noted
robbers wanted for the seal skin robbery and
the murder of Detective Hulligan on the
train near Ravenna. Ohio

The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1887-12-08

HAD the 24,712 Labor votes cast in
Ohio at the last election voted the Dem
Ocratic ticket, they would have counted
and would not have been thrown away
Over eleven thousand of these were
voted in Cincinnati, leaving only some
thirteen thousand that were voted in
all the rest of the State.
We would really like to see those
Labor" men act more sensible and be-
coming. They ought to see it is Of no
use, and ought to join and work with
those who are laboring likewise for JUS
tice and the general good.
1t may be that there is occasionally a
prominent gentleman among the
Union Labor" people who has met
with personal disappointment, and
therefore he is where he is. If so it is
unfortunate for him. He ought to
realize that imam is doomed to disap-
"pOintment;" and that man is little Of
a philosopher who allows personal con
siderations to TINS sway his Judgment.
Personal considerations in our poll
tics take various shapes. Some are
said to be mean enough to work and
vote for "boodle." 1t is to be hoped
these are few. Others in the bitterness
of disappointment may switch off.
Perhaps a nomination for office was
not got when desired; and perhaps this
very failure was a blessing, as it usually
is.
A very worthy man will often take
personal grief of this kind so to heart,
that he will rashly rush away, abandon
his friends, and make great mistake.
We have known men spoil in this way
a prom ising future
